The 2025 Global Campaign is an initiative in partnership with USA Wrestling to leverage the global stage of wrestling. At four age-group World Championships, US teams will join forces with local federations, diplomats, and humanitarian workers to address ongoing needs within the community. Our objective is to foster sportsmanship, unity, and peace, while providing the opportunity for cultural exchange, community engagement, and diplomatic dialogue. Through this collaboration, we aim to elevate the positive impact of wrestling, turning each event into an opportunity for global peace-building and lasting change.
